Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

The problem of power supply for new cars has been solved, and then the communication system needs to be considered. Bao Zixuan already had a plan to deal with this, and Motorola entered his field of vision again.

Although Heiyun Automobile is a domestic company in the United States, he is an outsider after all. It will not gain the trust of the US military, so it is imperative to win over a strong ally. The communication system involves national defense security, and with the background of Heiyun Automobile, it is difficult to be trusted. Motorola is a NASA supplier, and their equipment was used when Armstrong sent sounds back from the moon.

It has cooperated with the US military in many aspects and is definitely one of the trusted companies.

Regarding this matter, Bao Zixuan specially communicated with Robert Galvin on the phone, and the process still had some twists and turns.

It is common for Bao Zixuan to call Motorola Chairman Robert Galvin. The two are not only partners, but also friends. For certain needs, of course, I also want to hide my strength. Black Cloud mobile phones and super-based computers have always used chips produced by Motorola, and Jedi is one of the company's largest customers.

Robert Calvin instinctively refused Bao Zixuan's invitation to participate in the development of a new military vehicle communication system. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Hei Yun is definitely out of luck. Instead of wasting time, it is better to have a good discussion with the other two companies.

There is no human relationship in business, and profit is the most important thing in business. When the U.S. military has basically given orders to General Motors and Ford Motor Company, Robert Galvin does not want to have any intersection with Black Cloud in this regard. Not only will this not result in an order being obtained, it may also misunderstand the US military.

Motorola's participation has changed things a bit, and it will be considered that they are also one of the bidders. Not only will it have a certain impact on the decision-making of the Department of Defense, it may also lead to misunderstandings among the American people.

Of course you want to make money, but it also depends on what kind of money you make and whether you are lucky enough to make it. Obviously, it is not a good thing to cooperate with Heiyun Group in bidding for this military vehicle project. The possible result is that the fox was missed and even got into trouble.

Motorola rejected the joint research and development invitation from Heiyun Group, which made Bao Zixuan very angry. I really thought that he was invincible in the field of communications, but that was just because Heiyun didn't reveal his strength. But the time is not yet ripe, so let Motorola be arrogant.

So Bao Shoufang had no choice but to bite the bullet and call Robert Calvin himself.

Bao Zixuan: "Mr. Calvin, my old friend. I haven't heard your voice for a long time, but I miss you very much."

Robert Calvin certainly knew why Bao Zixuan called. The other party definitely does not care about themselves, and there are a few businessmen who will particularly care about their partners who are also competitors.

There are no such coincidences in the world. I just rejected Heiyun Group's cooperation invitation this morning. In the afternoon, Bao Zixuan called. The other party obviously wanted to convince me, or he was dissatisfied and came to question him.

These are normal. It is not a good thing for young people to go too smoothly. Let Motorola teach him a lesson today. Don't think that everything is as it should be. No one in this world owes anyone anything.

Motorola's cooperation with Heiyun Group can bring huge benefits. But in comparison, Heiyun Group earns more. Although there are other competitors, in Robert Calvin's eyes, his company's products are the best in the world.

Robert Calvin said with a smile: "Mr. Bao, I haven't heard your voice for a long time. But there is a lot of news about you, and your business is getting bigger and bigger, which is really enviable. It seems that we people are really old Yes, you have taught American industrial enterprises a good lesson."

Robert Galvin is a well-known figure in the American business community. The old military vehicle project is obviously a business scheme of the Ministry of Defense to trick the Black Cloud Group. This kid is amazing enough to actually be able to run a money-losing business. American business celebrities were stunned by the series of operations, and their views on Bao Zixuan rose to a new level.

No matter whether it is China or the Middle East countries, including Brazil, they are not fools. This guy was actually able to sell the product without the buyer even seeing it, and it was a second-hand product. It requires customers’ absolute trust and recognition of its strength. What's more important is that you have deep connections, otherwise they won't want to talk to you at all.

It can be said that Bao Zixuan has calculated everything from the beginning. Jedi is a person who takes one step and sees the other. You have to know that this kid is still so young, it will be better when he matures.

Robert Calvin knows that the Black Cloud Group will definitely be a strong enemy in the future. This is now the case for Motorola, and what he thinks about is that it may threaten the status of the United States. Of course mainly in the industrial field. No businessman or enterprise can shake the political status of the United States of America in the world. Not even the Soviet Union, let alone Bao Zixuan, a young man.

Therefore, we must both cooperate and be on guard against the Heiyun Group. This scale is difficult to grasp, but Robert Galvin feels that Motorola has no problem.

Bao Zixuan: "Mr. Robert is joking, we are old friends. Heiyun Group wants to compete for the US new military vehicle project, and hopes to get technical support from Motorola in terms of communications. Let's cooperate in the communications field."

"It's a good opportunity to enhance Motorola's reputation and technical strength. I believe that the U.S. military will not dare to ignore the combination of Motorola and Black Cloud Group."

This shows that with the help of Motorola's influence, the wishful thinking is loud enough. I want to keep rejecting you; how can I cooperate on the military vehicle project? Isn’t that going to be poked in the back by American companies?

Rejection is also a skill, at least it cannot be broken. At this time, Motorola still needs orders from Heiyun, so at least it won’t offend too much in the future.

Robert Galvin: "Mr. Bao, regarding the cooperation request made by Heiyun Group, Motorola has received it, but the company's board of directors is not optimistic about this project."

"We are all old friends. Let me tell you straight. The Ministry of National Defense means to give orders to General Motors and Ford. I believe you should know even if I don't say it."

"They spent a lot of effort and hired public relations companies to lobby the White House and the military. Other companies basically have no chance, including Heiyun Motors."

"Although Motorola has a certain military background, it cannot be overly consumed."

Robert Calvin's intention was obvious, and he persuaded Bao Zixuan to give up on his own initiative. In this way, everyone will not be harmonious, and we will still be friends when we meet. Rejecting Heiyun Group is a business matter, mainly a board decision. But now that Bao Zixuan has called him, he must not use a strong tone. Young people are full of blood, and Motorola will not gain anything by irritating the other party.

Bao Zixuan said deliberately: "Don't the U.S. military's procurement rely on product quality and performance? Is there a secret operation here? It is very inconsistent with the temperament of a country that has always advertised freedom and democracy."

Robert Calvin thought after hearing what Bao Zixuan said. The boy is still too young; he still believes that he can get a chance to compete fairly. Arms sales must take care of local companies, and the U.S. military will never treat Heiyun as one of its own.

If Motorola chooses to jointly develop with Heiyun, it will definitely offend General Motors and Ford, and it will run counter to the plans of the White House and the Department of Defense. Even though Motorola is deeply rooted in the United States, it does not dare to offend so many companies and institutions at once.

Robert Galvin: "Mr. Bao is still young and has never had contact with the U.S. military before. Fair competition basically does not exist, and the balance of interests is the prerequisite for cooperation."

"As a friend, I can only say so much, and I may make mistakes. Military matters involve many confidentiality principles, and I hope you can understand Motorola's difficulties."

How could Bao Zixuan give up so easily, otherwise it wouldn't be him. Even if the military vehicle order cannot be won, the water will be muddied. So he said with a smile: "As the most technologically powerful communications company in the world, Motorola doesn't want to achieve greater development!"

"Of course I know that we can't get orders from the U.S. military, but Saudi Arabia and Kuwait in the Middle East also need new military vehicles. The U.S. military is more of a cover, and the Middle East is Black Cloud's target."

"There is no need for Motorola to come forward with the US military this time. Everything will be negotiated by Heiyun Group. Only Motorola's trademark will be printed on the in-vehicle communication equipment. If you don't agree, you can also put Heiyun's logo on it."

Hearing this, Robert Calvin felt that there was some truth. But he was worried about being deceived. After all, Bao Zixuan was not a good man or woman.

He is still very optimistic about the Middle East market. At least Motorola shouldn't give up and agreed to send a technical working group to Heiyun Motors. The prerequisite is to promise them that you can withdraw at any time if something goes wrong.

Robert Calvin was worried that he would be misunderstood by the military, and he would be unable to speak clearly.
